hah, ok well ill sign it and should be golden hopefully :) sorry my Clockwork doesnt have sig checking and i no longer have my eris with amon :)

ill try to update it in a few :)

*** EDIT ***

i updated the first post with an attachment, i could not upload to android.grdlock.net (site was not responding)

This should be signed, but currently i cannot test in CWR because when i turn on sig checking, it is using valid sigs and wont verify test keys, which is what we use to sign the updates with.

Please let me know if it still gives you any errors :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] darkmage1991:
anyone used the new flash and see if it fixed the data issue?
[Droid Eris Android Development] wetchckn:
i flashed this and caused a bootloop (stuck at the android skateboarding screen).

I tried to read what it said as it flashed, but the last few lines i could see were:

in case if kernel does not support init.d scriptsE:unknown command [...]

Done copying autostar.sh incase your kernel does not support init.d scE:unknown command [ripts...]

un Mounting Data...

Un mounting system...

Done!!

i flashed this and caused a bootloop (stuck at the android skateboarding screen). The trackball wouldnt even flash letting me know the system was booting up...

[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
hmmmm..... im going to look into it to see why amon didnt like the edify scripting, its flashing fine for me in CWR, but i hear its yucky on the eris, i personally only used amon on my eris.

going to do some research to see why its not liking those commands.

** Edit ***

not sure why it would cause a boot loop, nothing is being modified that would cause a bootloop at all =/

its just simply droping 3 files onto the phone, that if not called would not do anything. very odd. Anyone else having the same issues?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
I know this is early but i just installed the Rooted Gingerbread Rom on my Droid X. As a typtical install i installed the V10 for Cricket. I booted into recovery and the install went fine without any errors.

However when it boots up

The battery charge gets stuck as 20% and won't charge any higher.

The radio is turned off and will not turn back on

Clicking <about phone> in settings does nothing.

A data format corrects the issue but the V10 doesn't seem to work :(

I can only guess the system is completly different and the V10 will not work.

Regardless the file works great on my wife's Droid I :)

I'm off to the manual install.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Ya I found out the hard way earlier. Im trying to get everything working manually as well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
If you guys are just doing it manually and using GB, i would assume your using cyanogen and the rom maker has init.d support in the kernel.

You can just extract the zip

copy autostart.sh and u2nl your androidsdk folder

rename the autostart.sh file to autostart

then do:

(Or whatevern command you normally use to make your filesystem read/write)

then do

That should get data up and running.

Then download apn backup and restore, backup your apn, open your backed up apn and edit sprint or verizon to cricket, then re open apn backup and restore and delete your apn's then restore with your modified one for cricket.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
I was going to post how I got my Droid X up and running but you beat me to it.. One thing that will not work is the stock text messaging app. You will have to load up an Mms.apk from a froyo ROM in order for mms to fully work. Also you will have to create a folder called init.d and then push the file to it. Another thing I did was edit the build.prop file with cricket info (310016).
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
bigshotrob22, are you using the NEW 2.3.3 Rooted Gingerbread sbf that released a day or so ago that is NOT based on Cyanogen?

My web and market are working fine with the push of U2NL and autostart.sh to the < /data/opt/autostart.sh>

So if i understand i don't need to push the autostart.sh to /data/opt/ and only push it to /system/init.d/ and without the .sh extension? a.ka. /system/init.d/autostart

Also, when I try to create the init.d folder in system with Root Explorer i get a "system is read-only"

Sorry for so many questions.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Yes I am using the Rooted Gingerbread.

MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE DOING ANY OF THIS:

Heres what I did:

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools <enter>

adb shell <enter>

mkdir /data/opt/ <enter>

exit <enter>

adb remount <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\u2nl /system/bin/u2nl <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\autostart.sh /data/opt/autostart.sh <enter>

adb shell <enter>

chmod 0755 /system/bin/u2nl <enter>

chmod 0755 /data/opt/autostart.sh <enter>

exit <enter>

adb reboot <enter>

I also did the following:

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools <enter>

adb shell <enter>

mkdir /system/etc/init.d <enter>

exit <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\95autostart /system/etc/init.d <enter>

adb shell <enter>

chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d/95autostart <enter>

Reboot your phone.

Make sure to grant Autostart (Root) superuser access.

Then I loaded the attached Mms.apk

I then replaced the telephony.db file with the one attached.

Heres how:

Delete the mms.apk located in system/app

Drop the attached mms.apk into system/app

Delete the telephony.db file located in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

Drop the attached telephony.db in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases (Be sure to rename the telephony.db file you downloaded back to telephony.db before dropping it back into data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases)

Reboot your phone.

Let me know if this helps.

I forgot to mention I edited the build.prop file

I replaced Verizon MCC number (310004) with Cricket's number (310016). Theres 2 places in the build.prop file that I changed.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
you've been a ton of help.. I'm off to give it a shot. Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
No problem...another thing I don't remember if the stock messaging app is named mms.apk
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
I must of done something wrong when loading the sbf.. I have

System Version: 4.5.573.MB810.Verizon.en.US

Android Version: 2.3.3

Baseband Version: BP_C01.09.07P

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-g5a891f6

w30471@il93lnxdroid42 #1

Build Number: 4.5.1_57_DX5-3

I have the SuperUser icon.. I have several apps that are listed in SuperUser. I just can't modify the sytem files or folders.

I hope i don't need to start over with a new install.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Are you using your computer?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
Yes.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Try adb remount. Also try adb shell cd system cd etc mkdir init.d
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
Also, on the Droid I have "USB Debugging" turned on and USB Connection as "Charge Only"
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
now that worked. old schoold linux commands. i'll continue forward.
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
You should not need both /data/opt/autostart.sh and /system/init.d/autostart

only one or the other

Think of data this way, you have 2 parts:

The delema is you need a way to launch the script:

( You only need one 1 way, automatic seems to be the preference :) )

Manual Methods:

Automatic Methods:

Hope that helps some :)

Also when using the mms.apk posted above you may need to clear your data for the app if you encounter errors.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
token419 , this totally makes sense. So even on GB it doesn't matter if you use method 1 or 2 to get web.. As i created a stripped down verison of V10 that only installs U2NL and autostart.sh via step 2 that's why my web and market were working from the get go but not mms.

U2NL and Autostart.sh ONLY attached below.. Credit to Token419

bigshotrob22, thanks man.. i finally got it working with your mms.apk. I figured the telephony.db was needed so i took it off my wifes Droid 1 last night. After comparing it with yours it's the same one.

While i'm at it i'm going to modify the zip i have for u2nl and autostart to include the telephony.db and Messaging.apk. Hope to have it posted later today.

thanks for all the help guys!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] meanm50:
So did I miss a fix for gingerbread/cricket data drop issues?
[Droid Eris Android Development] cliffordconradsumner:
I'm pretty sure you did..

I've been keeping up with the thread in hopes that there would be some love for the metro crowd but nothing so far.

I've been planning on donating to whoever got the data working for metro but I'm thinking maybe I should start a fund raiser...does anyone think that would work and how much would one of you people in the know want for such a thing?
[Droid Eris Android Development] meanm50:
I HAD full data and gingerbread broke it...it would only work every few minutes...fixed?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
for metro you should be able to do the same thing to get internet. Extract the zip for Metro and copy the U2NL and Autostart files manually.

I would suspect coying the messaging.apk would correct the MMS issues... ONLY if you have a telephony.db from a Froyo phone to replace. Token does mention in a previous page or so back that you can use APN Backup and Restore as well. Unless i read that wong.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
Does ScriptRunner work for the Metro guys like it does for Cricket? I'm sure it does the same thing. This was posted on Hofo by XSYLUS.. It's a service that you can set to check your connection ever so many minutes. If not connected it will run autostart.sh automatically to restart the connection.

All credit goes to XSYLUS

http://www.mediafire.com/?94823gddlvf45
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
I am goign to give this a shot on my Droid X. I believe this will work on Metro as well.

This is from XSYLUS readme.txt:

"The purpose of this app is to run autostart.sh

whenever 3G is enabled. The autostart.sh file

should be stored in /data/opt/. This app is

meant for anyone using an Android phone like

the Droid on a different carrier than the one

the phone is intended for. If you need u2nl and

autostart.sh then this app is for you."
[Droid Eris Android Development] meanm50:
RAD! (Yes I just said rad...)

I am stoked...going back to Froyo wasn't THAT bad, but I sure do miss GSB quite a bit.
[Droid Eris Android Development] endoki:
As I have mentioned before, MetroPCS does not require a proxy for data anymore, so there is no need for setting ip tables using U2NL, ASR Scripts, etc. Data just works! The GB "LOST DATA" issues is completely GB specific. Here is a link to the results of some testing I did a while back:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11976290&postcount=679 :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] endoki:
There are a few of us looking into it; trying to pin-point the lost data issues related to GB. So... love is indeed being offered but nothing has paid off yet. ;) Remember, that this does not seem to be a carrier specific issue, but a GB one; when the problem is finally solved, I believe it will benefit both Cricket and MetroPCS users. :)

I don't think any of us here do it for the money... but for the benefit of us all! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
in reponse to you "LOST DATA".. ouch.. sorry to hear that.. i wish i could have been more of a help.
[Droid Eris Android Development] endoki:
You are of help! The more of us that part-take, the better... I was just adding my 2 cents. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] cliffordconradsumner:
I knew you had been working on it before..just hadn't heard anything in a while so I was sort of losing hope.

Thanks for being awesome and for donating so much time for the good of the community..though you don't do it for the money, the least I can do is buy you a coffee if you get it working.

Thanks again! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
bigshotrob22, everything does seem to work now.. especially MMS. The only weird thing is i get double messages. I guess it's something i can live with since GB is running very well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Did you remove the stock messaging app?
[Droid Eris Android Development] tieman123:
I think i got it. I didn't know I had to disable conversations.apk.. I loaded up SystemAppRemover an dsabled conversations.apk and that did the trick.

Thanks again man!
[Droid Eris Android Development] darkmage1991:
sry if i missed it, but has the new flash from token fixed the gb data issue?
[Droid Eris Android Development] wetchckn:
somebody help me... im runnin gsb, and all i did was:

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools <enter>

adb shell <enter>

mkdir /system/etc/init.d <enter>

exit <enter>

adb push c:\android\tools\95autostart /system/etc/init.d <enter>

adb shell <enter>

chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d/95autostart <enter>

Reboot

and its stuck on bootloop (the skateboarding Android).... this happened w the v1.2 flash that token is workin on.... can it be my phone?
[Droid Eris Android Development] PimpTwzt:
It seems to be worse now in GSB 2.5 It cuts out even sooner.
[Droid Eris Android Development] darkmage1991:
same thing happened with me im just using the autostart way

here lately i have been more on wifi so i havn't really noticed
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
Just wanted to give a heads up, I got back from my trip to San Diego and came to the conclusion due to all the reports of bootloops with the last update script that im just going to try to write an app rather than an update script.

Development has started and i have it able to set iptables and u2nl manually as well as correct the MMS APN. I need to work out how to get the proxy portion to autostart still.

Im rewriting the MMS apn portion of my app currently to use native android instead of the sqlite3 binary (which does not require SU access, so for anybody not on a proxy plan, or metropcs, there is no root requirement).

I can even break out the MMS portion of the app to a separate lighter weight app as well for those not on the proxy plan or on metropcs that just want the mms apn corrected.

Hope to have it in a beta state soon.

Going to plop down the $25 to get my developer key so i can publish to the marketplace.

Question for you all, im debating on doing a free and donate version, free version being ad supported and maybe a nag every x amount of hours, and a donate version for like $2 that removes the adds and nag and maybe has additional features.

Normally i wouldn't bother with adds/donations etc, but due to the cost of the developer key and the time taken to create the app, figured it would be nice to try to recoup some of the cost lol.

Let me know what you all think, and don't worry, the scripts and posts i have wont be going anywhere :) those who want to still use the flash are totally able to, i figure the app will help reduce the support requests and be the most universal solution as well for the u2nl/iptables proxy folks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] endoki:
Sounds great token, I have also been giving some thoughts about possibly making an app for the MetroPCS users. Great news!

Your work is always appreciated... it has taught me a great deal. Thanks!!! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
2 dollars and you will fix the data issues with GB?.. Game on token, enjoy retirement. Sell the app to the metroflash shops..

:)
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigshotrob22:
I wouldnt mind paying $2 for an app and especially one that will help alleviate the issues. I have done a lot of "crap" with your stuff to get my old Eris, my wifes DInc and now my Droid X working fully on Cricket so paying $2 for all your work is well worth it. I along with the community appreciate all your hard work! If theres anything you need help with just shoot me a PM. Thanks Again!
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
Data issue.. fixed.. what :)

Sooo.... I was just messing with my 1.9gsb phone and playing with the settings and so far my data has not dropped for the past hr.. this is what i've done..

I installed the power control widget on the screen with the gps and data toggle and background data toggle on it..

I activated gps/data/and background data... usually i turn off background data as it drains the battery... but i think that it is somehow keeping the internet connection alive :)

Is it fixed permanently?.. Only time will tell.. but before my data would drop after about 5 mins but oh my i've lasted an hour :).. How long will she go?...
[Droid Eris Android Development] schigara:
Token,

I rooted and fully flashed my Incredible with your Rom and data setup file and everything works perfectly except for 3g.

Sometimes the phone will say 3g and the internet is pretty fast but about half the time the thing will be in 1x mode with painfully slow internet.

I live in Memphis and the PRL is 32100. Radio is 2.15.00.07.28, Kernel is 2.6.32.17.

32100 is the prl that came with the OTAP. I have tried some others like 49027, 42100-42700, 38515, 32100-32400, 1050, 1039. 32100 seems to work the best.

Do I possibly need to try a different radio or is there a prl I haven't tried?

UPDATE: Flashed Radio 09.01 and problem is solved. 3g stays on, call quality is better and battery is lasting longer.
[Droid Eris Android Development] matthewmilbut:
Upgraded from gsb1.9 to gsb 2.7.. installed gapps and rebooted..

then after everything downloaded from backup like gmail etc i rebooted and installed the metroff that endoki put together..

I have data sync enabled.. have not lost data connection.

Workin great...
[Droid Eris Android Development] wetchckn:
Token, I'd be more than up for donnating two bucks for a fix. Its very well worth it! I'm getting frustrated enough w this data issue that I'm considering going to verizon and getting the iPhone 4! (Family member discount) But with your fix I'd stay with cricket!
[Droid Eris Android Development] meanm50:
I would pay for it...but I would rather just gather funds from a few people to cover the costs so the app can be totally free.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jtheis23:
Anyone know why everyday around 6pm my prl gets automatically updated to 42600 and all epst settings go back to factory on my DInc.

***EDIT*** of ourse it does not work for me. BUT i have to say the internet, and everything connected to it seems to run MUCH faster(which is great)! i think im gunna switch to a different rom and wipe everything and then do it to see how it works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
So is this not working for you, and if not, is the entire flash not working or just not MMS?
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
i would try out a cyanogen 5 based rom, just to test on, it may be too stock for you, but it would let you know if the settings are working and if its the rom that is your issue.

I would recommend trying Darchstar's cyanogen 5 based rom :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] t12icky0:
ok...i will give it a try. Thanks man

im having troubles trying to find that one tho. all i can see is the cyanogen 6. By chance do you know a specific rom that you would recommend?
[Droid Eris Android Development] token419:
for HTC Hero CDMA try this:

Darchstar Darchdroid v2.8 (note i belive he is no longer updating this, as has a fork on cyanogen now for Hero)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=703133

make sure to flash the rom then after the phone boots once, flash google ****s (you can flash my file at the same time) then reboot 2x.

Let me know how it works out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] t12icky0:
Well that was a no go for me also. I guess i will just be destined to have no MMS..lmao. Its all good man..i do appreciate all the help.

BTW

Cricket

Htc Hero

Fresh Toast 2.1, Darchdroid 2.8, Fresh 2.3.3(tried all those)

so far only MMS does not work..everything else is freakin fast as hell.

Thanks for all your help, i will just have people send MMS to my email..lol!

I've applied the v10 flash and of course, mms still won't send/recieve. But on the upside, apps, weather and market still work. Never did get Autostart to ask me to "allow" anything on the v9 or v10 update either. Some forums I read thru suggested to install a different rom or even this: wwwdotdroidforumsdotnet/forum/htc-droid-eris/43507-google-maps-wont-update-after-2-1-a.html[/url] because I'm having problems getting google maps to update also.

MMS was working before the v9 flash. I had written APNs a few months ago that worked, and those were still working for her.

Sending MMS still works, but she has not received even 1 picture message.

I know sending works because she sends photos right to Facebook by texting them to photos@facebook.com (or whatever her customized thing is)

Try the v10 flash and let me know how it works out, the v9 was set to send everything through the proxy, and had mms recieving issues, v10 should fix that. but let me know if it doesnt :)
